The Beach!


Hello everybody! Today I will tell you about a very important place for me. Guanaqueros is a beach of the IV region of Chile. My dad, in his childhood, constantly traveled to Guanaqueros with his family (My Grandfather Guillermo had a house there), so obviously he have a very good memories about that place. So, with time, my father doesn’t take a lot of time to take us to Guanaqueros.
All the family likes the beach, so Guanaqueros becomes the place of family vacations. Every year I go to the beach with my family, but this year is the first time that we went for the 18th September.
I must confess that Guanaqueros is not a kind of crazy place with a lot of parties or something like that. But if you want a calm place, enjoy a nice beach and eat the best seafood empanadas of Chile, perhaps you can try go to Guanqueros.
If the place is not very exciting for you, Tongoy.is very near of Guanaqueros. This is another great beach, it has more things, such as a drugstore and a supermarket. But the best thing in Tongoy is the seafood market, a place where you can eat a fantastic “cebiche and mariscal”.
On 18th September, the beach was awesome. The weather was amazing, so if you wanted, you could swim. I think that Guanaqueros is a very good option if your intention is run away of the city and take a very relaxing time.
To conclude, although it is true that my celebration days weren’t a crazy party and a drunken stay, I had very comfortable days, sharing with my lovely people, taking sun and eating the kind of food that in Santiago practically doesn’t exist or is very expensive.

Tiqui tiqui ti!


I’ll go to Guanaqueros in the national holiday. I always go to Guanaqueros with my family, and will be the first time that i go on 18th September. My parents love the idea to travel on the holidays, so in a date like this, is not an exception.

My family is always saving money, but in the holidays, mi parents spend so much money celebrating, specially in barbecues. Actually, this thing is very funny, because they buy a lot of food in the supermarket, food as for twenty people, but we are only five.

I really like the national day, because is a very important celebration for me and my family and also Chile. Every year i really enjoy the national day, because the national games and music are incredibly entertaining. I don’t know how would be this year, but I hope that me and my family may have a nice national holidays.

I think that the most important thing on this year is the bicentennial. The celebration is gonna be amazing, so I have a lot of expectation about this.

I only have to say, that this 18th September, the people must eat all the “empanadas” that they can and drink a lot of wine and “chicha”. Actually a 18th September without these things it can't be a national holiday.

Free and Free


On our days, the education is a very big problem for the students and for the society in general. Unfortunatelly in Chile, doesn’t exist a real state university, because in all the universities you have to pay for study any career.

I think that the real problem is the privatization of all the services and rights, as the education. In our country, if you want to study anything in the university, you should know that the motivation is not enough, because the thing that always control your posibilities to be a profesional is the money. So, The Chilean University is really a state university system?

The solution for a problem like this is leaving the idea that promove the right that allowing a education market. Actually, a lot of schools and universities are privatized, making a big difference in our people, taking away her possibilities and human rights.

It would be great to come back to the 60’, when everybody could study for free on the university. Now the education it`s so different and unfair… perhaps, if i have children, they might know a different education, more just with oportunities for all. I hope that the idea “Chilean University, free and free”, becomes not in a far dream.
